Popeyes is giving fans a delicious new way to end their meal with its new Blackberry Cheesecake Pie.
Popeyes fried pies are one of the brand's signature items and already come in delicious flavors like Cinnamon Apple and Strawberry Cheesecake. With the debut of the new Blackberry Cheesecake Pie, there's yet another option for fans to sink their teeth into. This colorful new pie consists of a sweet filling made up of blackberry pie filling, cream cheese, and graham cracker crumbs, all stuffed inside a flaky pie crust that's been fried until golden brown.
Some eagle-eyed fans may notice similarities between the new Blackberry Cheesecake Pie and the Blackberry and Cream Cheese Pie, which debuted back in 2013.
